Zalman ZM-WB2 Water Block Review

March 30th 2004 | Cooling

I got a pretty decent reduction in overall temperatures and considering that I run my Exos on the mid-speed setting which doesn’t spin the fans up until the probe reads 97F and the fans never spun up, it’s a pretty quiet overall performance boost. I’d say that if you have an external water cooling setup that this would be an excellent replacement water block for those seeking an alternative to the bundled in waterblock’s or in the case of the Exos, it will give you an attractive option to the Koolance blocks which seem to always be in short supply.

…Overall I’m quite impressed with the Zalman ZM-WB2. The fit and finish are extraordinary and I have no problems recommending it to anyone needing a waterblock for a low to mid flow water cooling system. It will be a part of my system for quite some time to come. If it wasn’t for the issue I had with the mounting bracket I’d say it was flawless but I was able to cure that with a bit of fiddling - 9 out of 10
